Distracted Driving & Insurance Rates

Being convicted of a cell phone or electronic use violation in New York is a major merit system violation. A conviction will cause your insurance company to surcharge you for a 3 year period.

Cell Phone Conviction Penalties

The fine you get will just be the start of it. You can also be sentenced to:

· A license suspension

· Community Service

· Driver Retraining

· In rare cases, jail is a possibility

Legal Defenses to Cell Phone Use

The legal defenses turn on undermining the elements of the infraction of prohibited cell phone use, NY VTL § 1225. The elements of the infraction depend on whether you are charged with use of the device as a phone or use of the device as a personal electronic device. One constant among both ways one can be charged is that the vehicle must be in motion at the time of the observed use. There are also elements specific to commercial drivers which broaden the meaning of use and operation of a vehicle.
